Darold Petty Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 I would like to sell this cycad. It is 5.5 years from seed, the caudex is 3 inches diameter, and it currently is holding 7 green fronds. I have grown it in my greenhouse, in a 6x9 inch "tall 1-gallon" pot. My greenhouse glazing is about 84% light transmission so SLOW acclimatizing to direct sun will be necessary. I wish to sell this cycad because I suspect that it needs warmer temperatures and brighter light than my cool, foggy SF microclimate, which is totally dominated by the marine influence. This is a pity, because I find it most attractive. The price is $200 plus $20 for packaging and shipping to any address in the 48 states. (It may take me a few days to obtain a suitable box! ) I accept PayPal, send me a PM for my actual email address. Thanks ! 6 San Francisco, California Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5150cycad Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 That is one healthy looking daeboensis. It is holding a ton of leaves for a 3” plant. It obviously loved your greenhouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hillizard Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 Very impressive plant at a very reasonable price! Much, much larger than the four I have which are 3+ years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hillizard Posted September 8 Report Share Posted September 8 Every year at this time I hold my breath (metaphorically speaking) and hope that no leaf-chewing insects find the developing new fronds on my 3 in-ground Cycas debaoensis. This year I lucked out and they're all developing intact. I love the apple-green shade of the new leaves. This is the same leaf from two angles. I got this plant and three others from a North Texas supplier of cold hardy palms several years ago. I believe the seed source was ColdPlant in China. They're doing well in semi-shade here in suburban Sacramento. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
